So thats the run down, I just priced a 2006 Laramie Edition on KBB with all the options that I could, excellent condition came out to 20,000.
Thats not including all of the things I have above. So what do you think I could ask for my truck?

Im not thinking of getting rid of it right now. But in the near future I am looking to move out and this would be a huge payment on a new house. Not going to renting route.
You guys already know the past of my truck from being on the forum, and all the work ive done to it, so you know what it looks like.
I can upload more photos later but heres a sweet one I found

Id say you could get $12-14k for it. Very nice truck but since it has over 100k miles that is going to turn some people away.

Can you be specific on those areas, I completely understand the fact that large miles will change up the situation. But the trucks is near new in the fact of suspension and chassis. The only thing you would even come near thinking about next is the engine or tranny which both are bullet proof.

Whenever, if I have to find my own house soon like it looks I may have to sell. Ive already had a few people contact me on craigslist.

All that stuff you did to the truck is great. Your problem is going to be getting a buyer for more than $12-14k. The truck might be worth more but most people just can't write a check for that much and a bank isn't going to give a loan to someone for that much especially since the tuck has over 100,000 miles. I had tons of people like my old truck when I was selling it and they said they were going to buy it however the next day I would get a call and they would say the bank would only give them a lone for half of what I was asking for my truck and my truck was a 05 with only 60k miles. Banks could care less how much money you have spent on the truck because it doesn't make it any more valuable to them.

Edmunds TMV is usually more accurate than KBB. Honestly with 115k miles you are looking at $14k, 16 if you are lucky. If you would have sold it with 99K miles you probably could have got 16-18k.

I would keep it if at all possible, selling my ram is one of my bigger regrets.

sucks that you might have to sell, your truck is awesome. I believe you could probably get around 16-18k considering its the newer style, 4wd and a hemi. you gotta consider how much prices change from area to area, a truck in Texas worth 20k might be worth 12k up north, the prices range so much

The only thing not new is the engine and motor, frame. :roflsquared: And they are beastly doing fine. What if I installed a brand new fresh motor and fresh tranny? Would this change anything?

It would cost you a bunch of money unless you could find something with lower miles out of a wrecked truck, and if you put it in yourself you might be able to increase your overhead.
